Rain Fell, Flowers Bloom
Everyday I wonder
Poems I like alot
'Twas the Night Before Christmas" (For Bereaved Parents)'Twas the month befor...e Christmas and I dreaded the days,That I knew I was facing - the holiday craze.The stores were all filled with holiday lights,In hopes of drawing customers by day and by night.As others were making their holiday plans,My heart was breaking - I couldn't understand.I had lost my dear child a few years before,And I knew what my holiday had in store.When out of nowhere, there arose such a sound,I sprang to my feet and was looking around,Away to the window I flew like a flash,Tore open the shutters and threw up the sashThe sight that I saw took my breath away,And my tears turned to smiles in the light of the day.When what to my wondering eyes should appear,But a cluster of butterflies fluttering near.With beauty and grace they performed a dance,I knew in a moment this wasn't by chance.The hope that they gave me was a sign from above,That my child was still near me and that I was loved.The message they brought was my holiday gift,And I cried when I saw them in spite of myself.As I knelt closer to get a better view,One allowed me to pet it - as if it knew -That I needed the touch of its fragile wings,To help me get through the holiday scene.In the days that followed I carried the thought,Of the message the butterflies left in my heart -That no matter what happens or what days lie ahead,Our children are with us - they're not really dead.Yes, the message of the butterflies still rings in my ears,A message of hope - a message so dear.And I imagined they sang as they flew out of sight,"To all bereaved parents - We love you goodnight!"-By Faye McCord - TCF, Jackson, MS
Just Those Few WeeksFor just those few weeksI had you to myself.And that seems too short a timeto be changed so profoundly.In those few weeks,I came to know you...and to love you.You came to trust me with your life.Oh what a life I had planned for you!Just those few weeks...when I lost you,I lost a lifetime of hopes,plans, dreams and aspirations.A slice of my future simply vanished overnight.Just those few weeks...It wasn't enough time to convince othershow special and important you were.How odd, a truly unique person has recently diedand no one is mourning the passing.Just a mere few weeks.And no "normal" person would cry all nightOver a tiny unfinished baby,or get depressed and withdraw day after endless day.No one would, so why am I??You were just those few weeks, my little one.You darted in and out of my life too quickly.But it seems that's all the time you neededto make my life richerand to give me a small glimpse of eternity.~S.

but no one understands.For you were not only my daughter,
you were my best friend.I cried a lot today,
yet no one needs to know.For the day I buried you,
I lost my heart and soul. Those words time heals all,
make me want to scream.Or that how are you doing,
What on earth does that mean?The pain of losing a child,
feels like a constant stab.Those that sincerely know,
are those who have.Today my heart breaks more,
than it did a month ago.In two it will be a year,
since we had to let you go.I did not have a choice,
nor was I asked how I would feel.Living in a life, that just
no longer seems real.For all those of you, that to me,
do not know what to say.I want you all to know,
that it is okay. To all of you out here,
that know this pain as well.How sorry I am for you,
words can never tell.So to all of you who have
ANGELS watching from above.Today I wish us some peace,
As I send you all my LOVE!...

What Makes A Mother?
I thought of youas I closed my eyes,and prayed to God today.I asked what makes a motherand I know I heard him say"a mother has a baby,this we know is true.""But God, can you be a motherwhen your baby's not with you?."
"Yes, you can" he replied,with confidence in his voice,"I give many women babies,when they leave is not their choice.Some I send for a lifetime,and others for a day,and some I send to feel your womb,but there's no need to stay."
"I just don't understandthis God. I want my baby here!"He took a breath and cleared histhroat. and then I saw a tear.
"I wish I could show youwhat your child is doing today,if you could see your child smile,with other children and say..""We go to earth to learn ourlessons of love and life and fear,my mommy loved me oh so much.
I got to come straight here!I feel so lucky to have a mom,who had so much love for me,I learned my lesson very quick,my mommy set me free.I miss my mommy oh so much,but I visit her each daywhen she goes to sleep onher pillows where I lay.
I stroke her hair and kiss hercheek and whisper in her ear,"Mommy don't be sad, I'm yourbaby. I'm still here.""So you see my dear sweet one,your children are ok,your babies are here in my home,and this is where they'll stay.They'll wait for you with meuntil your lesson is through.and on the day that you come homethey'll be at the gates for you.
So now you see what makes a mother.it's the feeling in your heart.it's the love you had so much ofright from the very start.Though some on earthmay not realize you are a mother,until their time is done,they'll be up here with meone day and know you're the best one!"
I'm Spending Christmas With Jesus This Year
I hear the many Christmassongs that people hold so dear But they can't compare withthe Christmas choir up here I have no words to tell you,the joy their voices bring For it's beyond descriptionto hear the angels sing I know how much you miss me,I see the pain inside your heart But I'm not so far away,we really aren't apart.
Please love and keep each other,as my Father said to do For I can't count the blessingsof love He has for you I can't tell you of the splendor,nor the peace in this place Can you imagine Christmaswith our Savior face to face?
I'll ask Him to light your spiritas I tell him of your love Then pray for one another asyou lift your eyes above. So please let your hearts be joyful,and let your spirit sing For I'm spending Christmas inHeaven and I'm walking with the King.

Tear Drops
They say memories are golden,
Well, maybe that is true;
I never wanted memories,
I only wanted you.
A million times I needed you,
A million times I cried;
If love alone could have saved you,
You never would have died.
In life I loved you dearly,
In death I love you still;
In my heart you hold a piece
No one could ever fill.
But now I know you want me
To mourn for you no more,
To remember the happy times
Life still has much in store.
Since you'll never be forgotten
I pledge to you today;
A hallowed place within my heart
Is where you'll always stay.
If tears could build a stairway
And heartache make a lane;
I'd walk the path to heaven
And bring you back again.
Our family chain is broken,
and nothing seems the same;
But as God calls us one by one,
The chain will link again.

Tears Today Again

A MOTHER QUESTIONS GOD!!
Dear God,
I don't know if you can hear me. I know that you get a lot of prayers, but I am a mother whose baby is up there...
Something terrible happened. I think you made a mistake. See, I was gonna have a baby, but for some reason you took it away...
See, God, I'm trying so hard no to be angry, but I have no one to blame. For I was this child's mother and now I will never be the same...
God? Do you hear me? I pray to you every night. I get so frustrated as the tears run down my face. I hurt so bad inside, yet it won't go away...
I try not to cry, but it seems like my eyes have become a lake, there's always water in them. And sometimes it rains and the tears, they overflow God...
God, I begin to cry as I ask Why? Why? Why? This is not fair! Why did this happen to me? Yet you refuse to answer me! What kind of God must you be...
God, my husband, he tried so very hard to make me smile, but he cannot undo what has been done. Yet he never cries. Makes me feel like I'm alone...Well this was until the other night....
He woke me from a sleep, continuously flowing, his eyes began to weep. He grabbed my hand gently and kissed my forehead as he said "come look at our baby's footsteps." Confused and puzzled I stumbled to see...
That all his teardrops formed two little feet...
As I sit here alone in the bed I started thinking about what I had said. When out of the silence, God spoke to me and this is what he said...
"My child, these tears I cry for you. For I am a God of Mercy and I lost a child too. For your child did not suffer and my child died in vein. I am a God that's gracious in so many ways. Yes, I took your child, but not because of anything you've done... I gave you the chance to make me an Angel, the greatest gift a mother can give to her God. The mothers of my Angels are special- that's why I chose you. But I'll let you in on a little secret that will bring a smile to your face..."
"When your child was in Heaven, before I sent him your way, your baby was my special Angel that I promised a perfect mom. So as I sat down and opened the 'Mommy Book' that precious little Angel took just one look and said..."
"God, I want that one to be my mommy"
"I looked up with tears in my eyes and said ' Sorry- no can do. That mommy, she's not for you.'
"Why is that?" the Lil Angel asked.
I replied, "For that mommy, her baby will not survive."
The little Angel looked up at me with tears in his eyes. "But please God! For HER...I would die!"
For I could tell the Angel was so sincere, despite what I had told him, I sent him here...
As a smile crossed my face a tear rolled down my cheek. To know of all the mommies in the whole wide world, that special Angel chose me...
So if you are the mommy of an Angel- you are a special mommy. Because you, yourself, were chosen by God and for some reason he chose that Special Angel just for you!
Miss you so much!!!
angels sing above as they listen to mothers cry
they come down and comfort you and go back to the sky
we cant hear your voice or feel your touch
but us mothers can feel your love .

Angel Lily Charles Rip 12-20-2010
Even though you will never get to meet you Angel Lily Charles
I often wonder if you were a boy or a girl? , If you have big blue eyes like your big brother?
Did you know how much we loved you?
Did you know your big brother could say your names we had picked out for you
Addison ( Bubby called you addie) or Bentley.
How much we couldn't wait to meet you and give you hugs and kisses.
I picked to name you Angel Lily ,
Angel because I know you are our angel watching over mommy and your big brother and Daddy.
Lily because that is your daddy favorite flower and Christams lily are so pretty ,
And they will forever remind me of you and the fight you put up to stay with us.
Even though We may never hold you in our arms you are forever in our hearts
Not one day goes by your not in our thoughts or missed.
We never forget the sound of your heartbeat how much joy you gave us
We Love You
Mommy, Daddy ,and Big Brother.
